This doesn't has to do anything with Irrlicht.
This is all about Win SDK and GDI, so if anyone has an idea help!

I'm doing double buffering with Windows. And everything works fine, i copy one DC to another. Everything is rendered except child windows.
I declare the Child Window before the main loop wirh CreateWindowEx(); But when i run & compile my child window flickers and dissapears. I think it's cause of the double buffering. I don't know what to do.
I gues i need to do something with WM_PAINT in Callback, But what and how.
I need to make that child window constantly visible!

I've never understood windows programming. You could check out the microsoft developers central. there is lots of stuff there, and people who know windows inside and out.

This is NOT a C++ question (the question could be asked for any language usable with platform sdk).

is a Win32 question. Hook up to usenet microsoft.programmers.xxxxx (many to choose from). Or look at the MSDN (microsoft.com) or failing that a beginners book on windows coding.
